Gore C7 Stretch Jacket
Exceptionally high-performing material surrounds the Gore C7 Stretch Jacket which will ensure that you will always be kept in complete comfort no matter what. Moulding and stretching perfectly around your jersey, the jacket is the perfect extra layer for harsh conditions without causing restriction.
Designed to offer you the ultimate in weather protection, the jacket is constructed using Gore's most advanced Shakedry technology. This is completely waterproof and lightweight, keeping you dry in all conditions, without adding any unnecessary bulk. The durable waterproofing seals out all moisture, even in heavy rainfall, meaning that the skin will always feel dry. As well as this, the material will provide unique water repellency, meaning that rain will bead and run off the jacket. Despite sealing moisture out, the jacket will allow vapour from sweat to escape out of the material. In addition to this, air can flow in and out to provide you with a ventilated and comfortable feel within. The surface of the material will also block the wind out, as the Shakedry technology is completely windproof. This will protect you from the chill, especially on exposed spots. The jacket is extremely close-fitting and sculpted, which will mean that it will mound around your jersey comfortably, without looking or feeling too bulky. The construction of the jacket will also allow you to make a wide range of movements without restriction, or risk of damage being caused to the jacket. The revolutionary membrane construction will eliminate the face fabric from causing a chilling effect on the skin, meaning that you won't ever feel any discomfort when putting the jacket on. A full zip up the front of the jacket is easily adjusted, allowing you to quickly change the fit to allow more air in for breathability or to seal it, keeping the windchill out, especially on descents. An ergonomically shaped collar will sit extremely comfortably around the neck, providing a tailored fit. On the back, there is a dropped tail, which will give you an extra bit of coverage. A zip pocket on the rear is perfect for carrying small items like energy bars and gels. Reflective details will improve your safety by making you more visible in low-light conditions. Flat-lying seams within the jacket will remove the risk of irritation being caused by rubbing and chafing.
